Title: TSCA Work Plan Chemical Risk 

Assessment for 1-Bromopropane (nPropyl Bromide): Spray adhesives, dry 

cleaning, and degreasing uses. 

Chemical Covered: 1-Bromopropane 

(n-Propyl Bromide) (1–BP; CASRN 106– 

94–5). 

Summary: 1–BP is a colorless liquid 

with a sweet hydrocarbon odor that is 

used as a solvent in degreasing 

applications, spray adhesives, and in 

dry cleaning. 1–BP is produced or 

imported to the U.S. in large quantities 

(over 15 million pounds in 2011). This 

draft assessment focuses on human 

health risks to workers and consumers 

from acute (short-term) and chronic 

inhalation exposures associated with 1– 

BP use in spray adhesives, dry cleaning, 

and degreasing uses. EPA reviewed the 

evidence for 1–BP toxicity and 

identified risks for cancer (in workers) 

and adverse developmental effects (in 

consumers and workers). Other health 

risks identified for workers with chronic 

1–BP exposures include adverse 

neurologic effects, as well as kidney, 

liver, and reproductive effects. 

If you have any questions about this 

draft risk assessment, or the Agency’s 

programs in general, please contact the 

person listed under FOR FURTHER

INFORMATION CONTACT.

developing a pool of candidates for each 

meeting, FIFRA SAP staff routinely 

solicits the stakeholder community for 

nominations of prospective candidates 

for service as ad hoc members of FIFRA 

SAP. Any interested person or 

organization may nominate qualified 

individuals to be considered as 

prospective candidates for a specific 

meeting. Individuals nominated for this 

meeting should have expertise in one or 

more of the following areas: Human 

biomonitoring data and interpretation of 

such data; epidemiology (particularly 

reproductive/developmental, and 

environmental), exposure assessment of 

pesticides (residential and agricultural 

worker); route-specific 

pharmacokinetics (dermal, oral); 

physiologically-based pharmacokinetic 

modeling (PBPK); cholinergic and noncholinergic mechanisms; cholinesterase 

inhibition; developmental 

neurotoxicity; human health risk 

assessment; organophosphate 

pesticides; and pharmacokinetics. [Note: 

In support of the U.S. Environmental 

Protection Agency’s (EPA) priority of 

‘‘Making a Visible Difference in 

Communities’’ across the country, the 

Agency is committed to helping 

minority, low-income, tribal and other 

vulnerable populations improve their 

health and environment. In an effort to 

ensure that the Agency’s proposed 

actions are taking into consideration 

input from potential communities with 

environmental justice concerns, the EPA 

is offering an opportunity to provide 

input on the FIFRA SAP meeting to 

address scientific issues associated with 

‘‘Chlorpyrifos: Analysis of 

Biomonitoring Data.’’ The EPA 

encourages all grass-roots organizations 

and residents to submit public 

comments on this issue that is being 

addressed during the FIFRA Scientific 

Advisory Panel meeting. The Agency 

also encourages community 

environmental justice advocates to give 

a voice to their communities by 

nominating candidates for consideration 

to serve on this panel.] Nominees 

should be scientists who have sufficient 

professional qualifications, including 

training and experience, to provide 

expert comments on the scientific issues 

for this meeting. Nominees should be 

identified by name, occupation, 

position, address, email address, and 

telephone number. Nominations should 

be provided to the DFO listed under FOR

FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT on or 

before March 23, 2016. The Agency will 

consider all nominations of prospective 

candidates for this meeting that are 

received on or before that date. 

However, final selection of ad hoc 

members for this meeting is a 

discretionary function of the Agency. 

The selection of scientists to serve on 

FIFRA SAP is based on the function of 

the Panel and the expertise needed to 

address the Agency’s charge to the 

Panel. No interested scientists shall be 

ineligible to serve by reason of their 

membership on any other advisory 

committee to a Federal department or 

agency, or their employment by a 

Federal department or agency except 

EPA. Other factors considered during 

the selection process include 

availability of the potential Panel 

member to fully participate in the 

Panel’s reviews, absence of any conflicts 

of interest or appearance of lack of 

impartiality, independence with respect 

to the matters under review, and lack of 

bias. Although financial conflicts of 

interest, the appearance of lack of 

impartiality, lack of independence, and 

bias may result in disqualification, the 


asabaliauskas on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 45 / Tuesday, March 8, 2016 / Notices 12101 

absence of such concerns does not 

assure that a candidate will be selected 

to serve on the FIFRA SAP. Numerous 

qualified candidates are identified for 

each Panel. Therefore, selection 

decisions involve carefully weighing a 

number of factors including the 

candidates’ areas of expertise and 

professional qualifications and 

achieving an overall balance of different 

scientific perspectives on the Panel. The 

Agency anticipates selecting 

approximately 8 ad hoc scientists to 

have the collective breadth of 

experience needed to address the 

Agency’s charge for this meeting. 

FIFRA SAP members are subject to 

the provisions of 5 CFR part 2634— 

Executive Branch Financial Disclosure, 

Qualified Trusts, and Certificates of 

Divestiture, as supplemented by EPA in 

5 CFR part 6401. In anticipation of this 

requirement, prospective candidates for 

service on FIFRA SAP will be asked to 

submit confidential financial 

information which shall fully disclose, 

among other financial interests, the 

candidate’s employment, stocks, and 

bonds, and where applicable, sources of 

research support. EPA will evaluate the 

candidates’ financial disclosure form to 

assess whether there are financial 

conflicts of interest, appearance of a 

lack of impartiality, or any prior 

involvement with the development of 

the documents under consideration 

(including previous scientific peer 

review) before the candidate is 

considered further for service on the 

FIFRA SAP. Those who are selected 

from the pool of prospective candidates 

will be asked to attend the public 

meetings and to participate in the 

discussion of key issues and 

assumptions at these meetings. In 

addition, they will be asked to review 

and to help finalize the meeting 

minutes. The list of FIFRA SAP 

members participating at this meeting 

will be posted on the FIFRA SAP Web 

site at http://www.epa.gov/scipoly/sap 

or may be obtained from the OPP Docket 

at http://www.regulations.gov. 

II. Background 

A. Purpose of FIFRA SAP 

FIFRA SAP serves as the primary 

scientific peer review mechanism of 

EPA’s Office of Chemical Safety and 

Pollution Prevention (OCSPP) and is 

structured to provide scientific advice, 

information and recommendations to 

the EPA Administrator on pesticides 

and pesticide-related issues as to the 

impact of regulatory actions on health 

and the environment. FIFRA SAP is a 

Federal advisory committee established 

in 1975 under FIFRA that operates in 

accordance with requirements of the 

Federal Advisory Committee Act (5 

U.S.C. Appendix). FIFRA SAP is 

composed of a permanent panel 

consisting of seven members who are 

appointed by the EPA Administrator 

from nominees provided by the National 

Institutes of Health and the National 

Science Foundation. FIFRA established 

a Science Review Board (SRB) 

consisting of at least 60 scientists who 

are available to the FIFRA SAP on an ad 

hoc basis to assist in reviews conducted 

by FIFRA SAP. As a scientific peer 

review mechanism, FIFRA SAP 

provides comments, evaluations and 

recommendations to improve the 

effectiveness and quality of analyses 

made by Agency scientists. Members of 

the FIFRA SAP are scientists who have 

sufficient professional qualifications, 

including training and experience, to 

provide expert advice and 

recommendation to the Agency. 

B. Public Meeting 

Chlorpyrifos (0,0-diethyl-0-3,5,6- 

trichloro-2-pyridyl phosphorothioate) is 

a broad-spectrum, chlorinated 

organophosphate (OP) insecticide. The 

FIFRA SAP previously reviewed the 

human health effects of chlorpyrifos in 

2008 and 2012, and the chlorpyrifos 

physiologically-based pharmacokinetic/ 

pharmacodynamic (PBPK/PD) model in 

2011. At the 2008 and 2012 SAP 

meetings, the Agency presented 

information on a variety of science 

issues such as inhibition of the enzyme 

acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in the 

nervous system, epidemiology studies 

in infants and children which suggest 

that chlorpyrifos and other OPs impact 

neurodevelopment, and a growing body 

of literature with laboratory animals 

(rats and mice) indicating that 

gestational and/or early postnatal 

exposure to chlorpyrifos may cause 

persistent effects into adulthood. Like 

other OPs, chlorpyrifos binds to and 

phosphorylates the enzyme 

acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in both the 

central (brain) and peripheral nervous 

systems. This can lead to accumulation 

of acetylcholine and ultimately, at 

sufficiently high doses, to clinical signs 

of toxicity. As recommended by the 

FIFRA SAP in 2008 and 2012, the 

Agency used inhibition of AChE as the 

critical effect to derive points of 

departure for the 2014 human health 

risk assessment. However, the 2014 

human health risk assessment identified 

uncertainty in the degree to which 

points of departure derived from AChE 

inhibition are protective for 

neurodevelopmental effects in humans. 

In 2008 and 2012, the FIFRA SAP 

cautioned the Agency against using the 

biomonitoring data from epidemiology 

studies, particularly those from 

Columbia University in this case, to 

directly derive points of departure due 

to uncertainties associated with a lack of 

knowledge about timing of indoor 

chlorpyrifos applications and a single 

measure of exposure (cord blood) which 

were collected by the Columbia 

researchers. The concern is that single 

measures of exposure may not reflect 

the entire pregnancy or temporal 

exposure uncertainty coupled with 

unknown windows of susceptibility. 

The 2012 SAP recommended that the 

Agency consider use of a PBPK model 

to further characterize the dose 

estimates in the epidemiology studies. 

Based on human health risks identified 

in the 2014 human health risk 

assessment, the Agency published a 

2015 proposed tolerance revocation for 

chlorpyrifos; in that proposal the 

Agency noted that the evaluation of the 

available biomonitoring was continuing. 

While EPA would have preferred to 

complete that analysis prior to 

commencing rulemaking, the timing for 

the proposal was directed by the U.S. 

Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit, 

which ordered EPA to respond to an 

administrative petition to revoke all 

chlorpyrifos tolerances by October 31, 

2015. In any case, at this point in time, 

the Agency’s analysis of biomonitoring 

data from cord blood collected as part 

of the Columbia University 

epidemiology studies has progressed to 

a point where peer review would be 

useful. Specifically, the Agency has 

done additional characterization of the 

pharmacokinetic profile of simulated 

exposures from oral and dermal 

exposures using the PBPK model. Based 

on this evaluation, the Agency now 

believes the cord blood data are 

sufficiently robust for deriving points of 

departure. The Agency will solicit 

comment from the SAP on the 

evaluation of biomonitoring data using 

the PBPK model, proposed points of 

departure and extrapolation/uncertainty 

factors, and examples of a proposed 

approach to use the PBPK model to 

simulate internal doses from current 

exposure patterns from drinking water, 

food and worker exposure.
